Most bitcoiners can easily pass the requirements to get on supertorrents.org, but I have an invite I don't need, so...

Suggested bid: BTC1

10 mBTC showed up in that wallet, marking this [SOLVED]

Ok! That's a pretty useful tool.

Thanks Smiley

This is probably me, but...

I'm running BitcoinQt 0.7.2rc2-beta I read the threads with free Satoshis. The bitcoin client had not yet finished catching up, so I thought, I'll put in for some free satoshis on these sites, but wait a few days to see them in my wallet. Only it has caught up now, and my balance is still 0.00 (with no transactions).

One example: dailybitcoins.org 1YzCWkVD2hAW1ovubVsf3JbjED1qck7sT - I unchecked the box to delay the transaction so shouldn't it have been sent over?

I'm just a newbie. Adam, can you explain PopMoney a little more? I looked at both PopMoney and Dwolla but I was hoping I could buy BTC with straight cash.

I googled and found a site to connect me locally with BTC (not posting it here - not trying to spam) but I could use some "expert advice." Smiley

So I run it like this:
Code:
electrum --server my.server.com:8332:h
But I get an error:

HTTP 401 Authorization Required

Well, of course. bitcoind uses HTTP Basic Auth. But the documentation is confusing. I guess I need to set up bitcoin-abe and electrum-server? Is there a guide somewhere?

Edit: I found https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum-server - this looks useful!
290  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: A Better bitcoind Frontend on: January 01, 2013, 01:42:25 AM
Actually, Electrum is almost exactly what you're describing...

You set up bitcoind to run on a server (+ electrum server script), to which you connect
from the client. It is lightweight, uses Qt, comes for Linux, Windows, Mac and Android, and
even has a TUI (curses) version!

It all is quite stable now, and has a active community (including on IRC). I would say its
main weakness is the lack of adequate documentation for all these things (so far.)
Great! This is what I was looking for!

I missed that Electrum could work this way. Yeah, I guess I have a lot to learn!
291  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: A Better bitcoind Frontend on: December 31, 2012, 11:07:27 PM
Well... in the last 30 minutes I've created a curses TUI app that links with libcurl to hit up the json RPC.

Hah! Funny, that post was what put me over the top, now I've leveled up to 2 coins, so I should really move this to the Development forum.
293  Other / Beginners & Help / A Better bitcoind Frontend on: December 31, 2012, 10:28:11 PM
Since I'm still a newbie, I'll put this thread in the newbies section. Mods: please feel free to move this to the development section.

I'm new to bitcoins. Too bad, right? Smiley I missed out on all the fun! The ASICpocalypse is here and bitcoins have lost all their value. Heh, nevermind: it didn't happen.

Hey, one thing a newcomer might notice that everyone else has gotten used to: it takes forever to bootstrap a bitcoin client and it has to stay connected all the time!

Now, I don't trust anyone so I'll never be putting my wallet in the cloud. So I'll run bitcoind on an always-on machine I have in a locked cage somewhere, that's easy! And as soon as I started up bitcoind it hit me:

This needs a better frontend.

Ok, I admit, I only looked at a few and really only tried bitcoin-js-remote before I decided this isn't going to work.

Anyone want to help me write a better frontend? I'm currently unemployed but here are the apps I'd like to make, sorted from quick and easy (get my feet wet) to hard:

1. Linux Terminal App (bitcoind TUI frontend)

2. Qt App for my linux laptop. I don't like having to leave my laptop connected all the time just to keep my block chain up to date!

3. Android app

4. Mac OS native app

5. Windows native app

6. iOS app (I might never get around to this one. They can just use bitcoin-js-remote, right?) :-}

Does Satoshi post here anymore?

That's a clever way to optimize the FPGA's block usage. Subscribed.

Have you read this forum post yet? It's the reply to a guy who wanted to buy some FPGA hardware.

I only say this because we're newbies here. If you're fine with not making any money, go for it!

Good Day all! My name is Jason. I own and operate a smallish IT security consultancy. I also do work as a freelance programmer and have contributed to many open source projects. Cryptography has been a huge interest of mine since pre college days and that is what makes bit coin so interesting to me. I am just here to learn as much as I can about the economy that surrounds the bit coin. Hopefully at some point I can contribute to the community to make BTC even more anonymous and secure.
Welcome, crypto_trade! Smiley
